Privacy Fail

by folkbum

I have a Steve Jobs-obsessed friend, who emails along this story (my emphasis):

Apple CEO Steve Jobs is once again appearing at the company's Cupertino headquarters, unidentified sources claim. Evidence comes from a photo, showing what is believed to be Jobs' Mercedes SL55 AMG sitting in a handicapped spot within the company parking lot. A key identifier is the license plate; Jobs has a rare government exception, allowing him to use a barcode instead of letters for the sake of safety and privacy.

Yes, because having the only freaking car in the state with a bar code for a license plate doesn't make you stand out AT ALL.
